Re: Shadow Guard Build

Boots:
These are the boots that I ended up getting. They are comfortable and fit good. I'm considering cutting them down below the stretch panel, so I can use them for Level 3 approval.

Re: TFU Royal Guard WIP from TR-20610

I don't think there's a hard and fast rule. I made mine so that the top of the emitter was at eye level. That seemed to make it managable.

Re: Shadow Guard WIP, Finland

Love the work that you're doing. Great job thinking outside the box using a model drill to make holes and then cut.

If you can find an R/C Car store nearby or online they make scissors that are built to cut ABS plastic like that. You may find that easier or at least quicker.

Re: Shadow Guard WIP, Finland


If you bought it who was the seller. I could use a new belt. :)

Re: 3d Printed Parts

Yeah... the price is cost prohibitive. Especially when foreign (EURO or GBP) is involved.

Hrm.. I think the issue is that the slip joints just are not long enough. If instead of 1.5" of the slip joint covered, 4 or 5" on each end that might help stiffen it up. The cover these longer slip joints ...

3d Printed Parts

Slip fitting PVC together for a saber pike has the look, but the body of the saber pike flexes so much. Especially over time.

Has anyone tried to make 3d printed parts that go on a straight body Ultra-Saber or Saber forge lightsaber and extensions? Seems like that would be a way to get there.

There should be some faint trim lines on the front and back that you can follow. I left mine a touch thick, so that they looked like a piece of armor and not just 3mm plastic.
